| 1957 Packard Imperious |
The year 1956 marked the last hurrah for the “real” Packard. After that, Studebaker tried (somewhat successfully) to turn a Studebaker President into a Packard, but it was too little (literally!) too late.
There are stories of S-P trying to purchase 1956 Lincoln bodies from Ford to turn into Packards, but that idea died on the vine. What if S-P had purchased bodies from Lincoln, Chrysler, Cadillac, or even AMC and then found enough cash to make some sheetmetal and detail changes? Here’s what I think could have been the result.
Be sure to click the "Daily Drive's" link at the top of the page to see more Packards based on Cadillacs, Lincolns, Chryslers and even AMC cars.
This post offers a fascinating look into the history and legacy of Packards, a name that truly represents the elegance and innovation of a bygone era. As someone passionate about the automotive world, I love seeing how old cars continue to hold such charm and historical value. https://canberracash4cars.com.au/cash-for-cars-lyons/
